Okay, that's not a bad point. I guess when I use it, I mostly mean strong in development - that she's not a female character who exists just to say the ditzy punchlines or get the guy. So a 1950s housewife could be a strong female character if her role was developed so she was more than just that. I do think sometimes there's problems in that SFCs can still portray women in an idealized way.
